Thanks alot for your attentions ; 1-When fisrt ad-hoc is set in vista ,should be all these steps done in linux :
ifconfig wlan0 down /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager stop iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc iwconfig wlan0 channel 6 iwconfig wlan0 essid allah iwconfig wlan0 key 12346 ifconfig wlan0 up ifconfig wlan0 192.168.0.1 2- Can channel be set anyone of numbers 1-13 ? Or channel is specified by adaptor ? 3-first in vista ad-hoc wireless network has been created then in linux after runnig above command ,linux has been connected to vista but yet linux does not show vista shared folders ,what is/are the reason/s ? regards dehqan On 8/4/09, ow...@netptc.net <ow...@netptc.net> wrote: >> >> >> >>---- Original Message ---- >>From: m...@well-adjusted.de >>To: debian-user@lists.debian.org >>Subject: Re: Some questions about seting up wireless network between >>linuxand vista ; >>Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2009 11:17:28 +0200 >> >>>a dehqan: >>>> >>>> In The Name Of God >>> >>>Which one? :) >>> >>>> ifconfig wlan0 down >>>> /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager stop >>>> iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc >>>> iwconfig wlan0 channel 6 >>>> iwconfig wlan0 essid allah >>>> iwconfig wlan0 key 12346 >>> >>>The latter enables WEP encryption.
